Instead of agg...

[ilikePB]

That I kind of figured... we used it in EQ (for those that know what I am talking about..) to let people in the area/group know the "npc" has gone aggressive on you. Commonly used to let people know you have a "pull", or claims on an npc. If you have any idea what I am talking about... if not I would be happy to entertain, however thats not the topic.

Where did gat come from?

I think I'm gunna have to get back into EQ, that was an awesome game. I'm almost positive that gat comes from gatling gun.

[RTDynaflow]

We need a smack yourself ni the forehead smillie. Can't believe I didn't think of gatlin gun...
Makes sense.

EQ owned. It isn't what it used to be. How far did you play? Verant had the vision, sony crapped all over it.

[ilikePB]

I played from I think it was 99 till 02. I hear EQ2 is coming out, have you heard anything about that?

[RTDynaflow]

Yeah, it looks alright. But I have a feeling it is going to suck. I play from like 2000-20002. When I left I had a 65 Ranger with I think it was 205 AA points... Anyway, the game was awesome up to around Luclin. For me that is where it fell apart. I loved Velious. ToV.. ahh the memories. My guild let me pull once in ToVN. Think we had 15, 30 maybe drakes and atleast 4 named mobs. I fell on the floor laughing, was slaughterfest... for them.

[ilikePB]

Man, that brings back some good memories. I think I might go pick it up at Wal Mart or something just to see if I can get back into like I used to be. The last character I had was a lvl 62 Dark Elf Necromancer, I had a lot of other characters before that, but that one was my favorite one and the last one I played.

[RTDynaflow]

What server did you play? Ever go to ToV and raid north? That is some of my best memories. Velks, me and my Ench would own frenzy all day. Used to really piss people off. Velk was pretty fun as well. I hated 90% of the luclin raids. I don't know if you were around when that was out. I loved all the old school zones. I would camp the boot guy (can't remeber his name) in that one zone on norrath... It's been so long I am starting to forget names . That sucks.

The original game was all about fun and mystery and adventure. The game Sony turned it into was all about camping and 200+ people raids. When I quit it was to the point I could turn on attack and come back 15 min later and it would be half way dead.

I loved the epic quests and all of that. O yeah, and the iceworms on WWs, that was the original level 60 mob you could kite as a Ranger. The silks were a gold mine way back... What was that one dungeon to get to Western Wastes? Sirens? I loved that place too, because everyone was afraid of it - When I was playing the majority of people had no skills and their groups would fall apart under any challengeing dungeon. They knew how to push buttonsv- thats it. OMG and ST! I'm gonna cry... I loved that game. I tried to play it about 5 months ago, but had like 98hrs or downloads to get into it =/. I'm on dial up and couldn't handle that. I remember when BoTS awoke Keryfrem. Good times, good times.

THose were some of the best friends I ever had. I never met half of them, but would trust them with keys to my house.

Anyway, what a way to derail this thread

Sorry, didn't mean to. Caught up in the moment

[ilikePB]

Man I have forgotten so much about it I honestly can't even remember what server I played on last. I played on a couple and the only one I can remember is Fennin Ro. I am definately going to go buy it with the newest expansions though, to many good memories brought back not to, the urge to play is to great.

[GotMag?]

im gonna start saying EGG....

All the "cool" things the words agg means, if there is any, and none of the bad things agg means and there is a lot.

Cause in the end, im all up in yo face! This will never catch on. but it is my inside joke, yours too if you want it!

Now time for excessive use of smilies.
:)

WOW, i read that whole thing and I don't know what you mean

[RTDynaflow]

I played on the Rathe. I had a lot of friends in BoTS. There were quite a few that lived in the Houston area.

Yeah. I have to resist the lure. Otherwise I will lose my job, lose my family, lose my life. I will be braindead to anything but EQ. It is the worst addiction in the world. Quiting smoking was a thousand times easier for me.

I think what he meant was.... Err. He wants to replace the "A" with an "e" to make it egg. However, I am not 100% positive on this. I was joking last night when I started all of this and some people took it too serious. So I deleted my original thread. No one has come in here and started yet...

It funny that agg didn't even originate in paintball. It's even funnier when people get pissed off when people say the word agg or gat.

RTD

Yeah. They don't call it Evercrack for no reason. Definately the most addictive thing I've laid hands on(of course I've never done drugs either).

[Battlewear]

gat=gun, firearm.

in reference to firearms have been around probably before ww2.

Ok, if I understand this correct the term GAT is of course for a gun, firearm.. But what is the most famous of GATS? how about the Gatling Gun!! A rapid firing machine of destruction...

So to say you have a wicked GAT... well you get the idea..

As I understand it LOL

Personally, I don't care for the terms but I am sure my parents felt the same when I was growing up saying AWESOME and RADICAL and BOGUS! God does that date me?? LOL!



PS - That pic is freaking HILARIOUS!!! DEAR GOD! Now I need to have my local field will get one of those!!

[Curly]

Yo, you fools best get to steppin, you ever come around these parts I'll mow you muppets down with my AGG gat.

Who cares what people say, stop complaining. I get annoyed everytime I see a thread like this, if you dont like it, dont do it. Otherwise, shut up.

[Crazy]

i agree 100% with curly, these threads are lame and they just happen to pop up every other day.

[VR4SL]

regaurdless of what any of you newer guys may think in regaurds to this kind of "stuff"...it is rediculous. It really makes paintballers as a whole seem very childish. Is that the picture you want to convey? As someone who has been into paintball for almost 10 years, I really do see many of its older qualities faultering in the hands of the new generation crowd. LOL, I am not even that old and I see it!

The things such as what are being discussed right here are viewed very similarly to to dressing "ghetto". It was cool at the time, But now it has gotten quite old. 99% of the people who used to dress like that back when it was the in thing in middle school now look at those people now and laugh. Perhaps that last 1% hasnt gotten the memo? Using shortened names for things and ghetto/fad langauge is basically the same thing... it has gotten quite old.

Besides, do you guys realize it REALLY does make you sound like you only have half a brain when you speak like that? USE WORDS AS SENTANCES UNDERSTANDABLE AS THE ENGLISH LANGAUGE TO CONVEY YOUR THOUGHTS, you will get further in life.

PS- these threads are only lame to those of you who are guilty as charged. Perhaps you should take heed if these are popping up every day? Being able to express yourself professionally is what classifies people, like it or not. Do you think a Viper owner who came to me would want me working on their $100,000 car if I talked like that? They would dismiss all possibility of me knowing what I was talking about in less than 1 second if I spoke like some people do.
